Friend, Philosopher and Guide

It is cliched... but yes, everyone needs somebody to share their lives with...a friend...a confidant...who is always there for you... somebody to talk to about the daily humdrums of life...someone who not necessarily loves or agrees to everthing that you do or say......but who accepts you for who you are...somebody who will listen to what you have to say... someone with whom you are so comfortable that you can spend hours together without saying a word and feel like you just had the best conversation of your life... someone with whom you can learn something new everyday...someone who stimulates you mentally...

Trek to Chinchoti Falls

Reminiscing on the trek to Chinchoti Falls... amazing place... we took a train to Naigoan which is the closest station ... then an auto to the base of the hills... an hours walk brought us to the falls... enroute we had to dodge crabs .. myriad insects who seemed to have been starving... and just pounced on us ...yours truly being the favourite ... by the time we reached the falls most of us were sore from the many mosquito bites and aching thanks to the many falls ( no pun intended)... but the minute we saw the falls all the complaints were forgotten... it seemed like heaven on earth... right in the heart of the jungle ... a place so serene so beautiful... its almost like god did not want to spoil the beauty hence made the access to the falls so difficult... there is a pool at the base of the falls... we spent a couple of hours there and then reluctantly made our way back to civilization...

Reactions

There are days when you feel like screaming ... smashing things ... punching someone in the face...and all you do is paste the most fake..."Ooh, I agree with you" smile on your face and comply...when you feel like giving a piece of your mind to someone, after biting most of his/ her head ofcourse... but cant and are left simmering on the inside and your mind has already re-enacted the most perfect retaliation (all the aforementioned actions done at once) a million times over and you are smiling placidly on the outside taking comfort in these so called retaliations...I for I seem to be having more than my share of such days of late...
